Recent developments

It was at the 2018 Blockchain Security Summit that the director of the National Center for Information Technology Security Research, Yu Kequn, outlined that the development of blockchain technology could end up becoming a crucial step for China to get hold of the global technological competition. The top official added that blockchain would culminate in new industry development as well as in a new round of technological innovation with a rapid momentum.

It was in March that China’s national government put in place a Blockchain Registry Open Platform (BROP) and that it did through the central bank in the country. It is focused on the development of intellectual property rights on the blockchain, an undertaking it hopes to be successful with.

There are a number of other applications of blockchain in segments such as logistics, supply chain, cross-border payments, identity management and digital governance.
